Big City Buns (Fluffle Bunnies, Book #2)

by Anna Humphrey, Irma Kniivila (Illustrator)

Overview

The Fluffle Bunnies are back for the second installment in their bad-bunny kingpin saga. A brand-new graphic novel chapter book series for Bad Guys fans ages 6 and up.

Biggie, Boingy and Flop have the park under control, and life is grand, if maybe a bit . . . boring.

When they see a festival pop up nearby, they decide to investigate, and when they have a run-in with a group of city rats, their little park suddenly seems like small carrots.

The Fluffle sets their sights on a bigger prize. But can this adorable gang really take over the whole city?

Only if they can do it their way . . .

Bunnies bent on conquering the world set their sights beyond their local park.

The Fluffle Bunnies have bested a crew of raccoons and made a neighborhood playground their paradise, but they don’t want to stop there. When a carnival sets up across the street, the bunnies bounce over and buddy up with a rat pack who are busy munching fair food. Claiming to run the entire town, the entitled rodents offer a rejoinder to the bunnies’ softer way of life that intrigues them. The rats teach them about traveling by sewer, making city dwellers squirm, and scouring dumpsters for snacks. Unfortunately, the bunnies can’t keep up; they may not be able to hack urban life. When all seems lost, the cotton-tailed creatures dramatically deploy their true secret weapon—cuteness—and find a path to triumph. The action in this volume spreads out beyond the park’s narrow confines; this installment feels more loosely conceived than the first, but when the bunnies bring their gifts to bear in the final act, their far-flung antics reach a satisfying, dramatic conclusion. For fans of silly shenanigans and clever central characters, this bid for world domination will prove a familiar and enjoyable read. The human characters are diverse.

Cute and lightly snarky, with jokes and jaunts galore.(Graphic fiction. 6-9)
